Its communications infrastructure includes about 7,000 multi-purpose towers and active rooftop sites and 5,000 km of fiber backbone in France.

Close to 90% of BIP's cash flow comes from regulated businesses or long-term contracts and roughly 70% is indexed to inflation.

Since 2009, the partnership has grown funds from operations (FFO) per unit at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23%, and over the same time period, grew the distribution per unit at a CAGR of 12%.

For the quarter ended June 30, BIP generated FFO of $208 million versus $180 million for Q2 2014. The company declared a quarterly distribution of $0.53 per unit, which translates to an annualized yield of 5.6%.
